DETROIT-A Detroit firm has closed on a $2.1-million purchase of a surplus state government office. Sky Group Grand, LLC, an affiliate of Lakeshore Engineering Services, Inc., purchased the Labor Building, a 245,000-sf office tower at 7310 Woodward Ave.

The closing allows LES to relocate some 100 employees from its Michigan, and out-of-state offices. The international firm will conduct $2 million in renovations on the building.

“We are actively looking for tenants such as large private companies, federal agencies and local municipalities,” says LES president Avinash Rachmale. Sale of the former government office is the latest in ongoing efforts by the state to reduce its property portfolio.
